Classwork

I. Opening a terminal

keyboard shortcuts: (because faster is better)

Ctrl - Alt - T : open a terminal

Ctrl - Alt - Delete, then press ENTER : log out

II. Change your password:

In the terminal type:

yppasswd

The terminal will then prompt you for your old password and new one twice.

It will not show any letters or symbols as you type. This is normal.

READ THE LAST LINE AGAIN before asking me questions about it not working.
